This incredibly luxurious cotton sweater is yarn-dyed in Italy and knitted by artisans in Portugal for a unique feel you’ll never want to take off.

Monterey Pointelle has a roomier fit than the original Monterey. If in doubt, size down.

100% Italian Cotton

Now available in our exclusive-to-F&E Italian Pointelle fabric, Monterey feels lighter, airier, and summer-perfect. This elevated sweater with its unique continuous seam sleeve took years to develop, but the best part? Monterey is machine washable and doesn’t pill.

How to Measure

BUST

Wrap a soft measuring tape under your arms and around the fullest part of your chest. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.

Pro Tip: Keep your favorite undergarment on while you measure to get the most accurate number.

NATURAL WAIST

Stand up straight and relax your stomach, then wrap a soft measuring tape at the midway point between the bottom of your ribcage and your hip bone. Avoid pulling the measuring tape too tightly.

HIP

Stand with your feet hips width distance and flat, then wrap a soft measuring tape around the widest point of your hip.

Pro Tip: Sitting down while you take this measurement ensures accuracy and provides added comfort for the best fit.

INSEAM

Use a soft measuring tape to measure from the highest point of your inner thigh to the bottom of where the pant will hit. For instance, if the inseam is 27”, you’ll measure 27” down.

Pro Tip: Measuring with shoes on lets you see the full picture and ensures your pants fall exactly where you want them.

Perfect Spring, Summer, Fall Sweater

"I was lucky to score the pink version of this sweater and I love it. Fun to wear on its own or as a layering piece. The construction is excellent and several knitters have stopped me to examine the stitching and design. A legacy piece in my closet."

Janis O. (5/5)

Great Sweater

"Perfect length and fit. The color is an added bonus!"

Patricia R. (5/5)

Love Love Love

"This lightweight beautiful sweater will be appropriate at sooo many times. It fits beautifully, enhances the wearer’s choice of clothing, is very becoming and goes with many things (white slacks, jeans)! You’ll get so many compliments that it will make your head spin!!!"

Lynnan K. (5/5)

Great sweater

"Love both my white and yellow sweaters, the only caveat being that the yellow is larger than the white although both are labeled size small. Wondering if one is mislabeled…"

Good . . . but

"I like it but it looks stretched out already. I have worn it and my husband liked it a lot"

Brenda N. (4/5)

A wardrobe staple

"The cotton sweaters by F&E are replacing cashmere in my closet. They hold up so well, are easily washable, and the colors are beautiful. They are perfect for transitional weather and layering when it gets colder. The Monterey is my favorite, the rolled neck gives it a turtleneck effect with a fresher look. It seems to run pretty TTS, the sleeves are a bit long (I'm 5'3, 150 and wear a M in Monterey), but the way the sweater is cut it almost looks intentional and renders a cozier look."

Gwynn (5/5)

So cute

"This is a very cute & soft sweater. I wear a 8-10. I got the medium"

Joyce C. (5/5)

Soft and roomy

"Great color, soft airy weave, good fit."

Elaine H. (5/5)

soft and versatile!

"This is a very beautiful sweater! I bought my usual size small with the thought that I wanted a roomy fit, and it was stated that the sweater runs slightly large. It runs very large! But I’m keeping it because I think it will be a nice evening layer on my vacation to Mexico on the beach. If I get another color I will size down."
